List of Aquarion Evol characters

This is a list of characters from the manga and anime series Aquarion Evol.

Elements

Just like in the original series, the Elements are youngsters with special powers trained to pilot the vectors against enemy invaders. While forming Aquarion, the elemental powers of the users are amplified allowing Aquarion to perform special attacks depending of its current pilots. To increase Aquarion's flexibility in combat, a special teleport system labeled "Element Change" allows pilots to be called back and forth between the vectors's cockpits and their posts at Neo-DEAVA's command center instantly.

Amata Sora (アマタ・ソラ)

Voiced by: Yūki Kaji (Japanese), Christopher Bevins (English)

The male protagonist whose elemental power is Anti-Gravity (空中飛翔, Kūchū Hishō). It can be channeled within the Aquarion allowing it to have flight capabilities. Unable to control his powers as it activates every time he is scared or excited, he wears special boots with weights so as to prevent his elemental power in case it accidentally activates. As a child, people thought of him as a freak thus shunned his ability until he used it to protect Mikono from an attack of the Abductors and took control of a vector, breaking the seal in Aquaria that prevented union between male and female pilots and form Aquarion Evol. It is shown that he has "Wings" on his feet, which implies that he is a bearer of the "Solar Wings" just like Apollonius and Apollo before him. Amata is hated by Cayenne Suzushiro since he is the reason why Mikono gets close to the Aquarion.

Amata is actually Alicia's son, abandoned by her when he was a child, he grew up angry at her for leaving him behind, until she reveals to him that she left Vega to help his father Izumo, not taking him with her to ensure his safety. It was also during that moment, that he was split into two different beings by Mykage, the other being Kagura. After finishing the Special Training of the Grave devised by Zen Fudo he can now freely summon the Wings on his feet and is able to create a special skill called Detachment Wings allowing him to deflect Kagura's Power of Reversal.

Later it is revealed by Fudo that both Amata and Kagura each hold a half of the soul of Apollo, the main protagonist of Genesis of Aquarion and its previous incarnation, the Winged Hound Pollon which was Apollonius' pet companion and had an unrequited love for his lover Celiane, wishing to the heavens to revive as a human for reciprocal love in their next reincarnation cycle. Twelve thousand years later, Pollon revives as Apollo, and during his forced separation from Sylvia de Alisia, Celiane's reincarnation, they promise to meet again in twelve thousand years, leading to their rebirth as Amata and Mikono respectively. In the final battle against mykage, Amata tells Mikono that he was reborn to understand the sorrow that Silvia felt when he (as Apollo) left her and that he won't leave her this time. With a bit of help from Kagura who realizes that while his love for Mikono comes from Apollo's love for Silvia, Amata's love is for Mikono's current self. Upon Amata's and Mikono's reunion, the Aquarion sheds tears of joy reversing the damage caused by Mykage.

Mikono Suzushiro (ミコノ・スズシロ)

Voiced by: Ai Kayano (Japanese), Brina Palencia (English)

The female protagonist who comes from a famous and long lineage of Element users, but is believed to not have any elemental power unlike her elder brother. Mikono became shy towards other people due to the fact that she was believed to be the only one in her family without an elemental power, until it was revealed that she actually has an ability called the Power to Connect (繋ぐ力, Tsunagu Chikara), that links together the minds and feelings of others, thus becoming an irreplaceable asset to Neo-DEAVA.

Despite gradually falling in love with Amata, Mikono somehow feels herself attracted to Kagura, a union deemed forbidden by Zen Fudo and disastrous by her brother Cayenne who had an ominous and enigmatic vision of her wedding him dressed in mourning clothes, although there are several indications that she may be the reincarnation of Sylvia de Alisia, the heroine of the original Aquarion series, and Kagura being the reincarnation of her beloved Apollo. Although Mikono's connection with Sylvia is later proved true, Kagura is revealed to only contain half of Apollo's soul, being the other in Amata.

Zessica Wong (ゼシカ・ウォン, Zeshika Won)

Voiced by: Kana Hanazawa (Japanese), Caitlin Glass (English)

A female student in rather revealing clothes who took an interest on Amata and likes to tease him, much to Mikono's displeasure. Her elemental power is called Power of Distortion (捻れの力, Nejire no Chikara) that allows her to utilize telekinetic powers. Eventually she falls in love with Amata and gets jealous of his closeness with Mikono. Upon suspecting that Mikono and Kagura might be the reincarnation of Sylvia and Apollo, she feels sad for Amata despite knowing that he loves Mikono, she fears Mikono might leave him for Kagura because of it.

Heartbroken because she knows her feelings for Amata are unrequited, Zessica offers herself to accompany Izumo back to Altair as he requested, but is stopped by MIX, who is captured in her place instead. While grieving about MIX's capture, she is approached by Mykage who offers her a chance to rescue MIX by opening a dimensional gate to Altair, but stating that a compensation would be claimed later, which is revealed to be her body's possession by him. With her part on his plans fulfilled, Mykage frees her when she threatens to have herself killed by Kagura to stop him, and she joins Amata in the final battle against him.

Cayenne Suzushiro (カイエン・スズシロ, Kaien Suzushiro)

Voiced by: Kenichi Suzumura (Japanese), Jason Liebrecht (English)

Elder brother of Mikono. He is popular and known among the girls of the academy. His elemental power is called Prophecy of Despair (絶望予知, Zetsubō Yochi) which allows him to foretell when disaster is about to befall those near him, and makes use of it to perfect his sniping skills. He has an aggressive attitude towards Amata since Mikono was brought into the academy along him, as he usually has tragic visions about his sister connected with Aquarion, although he admitted to his sister what it was Amata himself the first to realize that Mikono was truly trying to overcome her previously weak and hopeless personality.

After finishing the Special Training of the Grave devised by Zen Fudo he can now use his elemental powers to predict a moment of the future to know where the enemy's next move will commence.

Andy W. Hole (アンディ・W・ホール, Andi Daburu Hōru)

Voiced by: Kousuke Toriumi (Japanese), Josh Grelle (English)

Wielding the elemental power of Hole Digging (穴掘り力, Anahori Ryoku), Andy can find a weak point on any structure in order to open a hole on it. Though eager to make union with girls, so far he is the only main Element who failed to do so, as he is usually called back and replaced by another Element when he has the opportunity. After finishing the Special Training of the Grave devised by Zen Fudo his power become stronger allowing him to dig chains of holes without breaking a sweat, and even opening holes on other surfaces like glass or metal.

Initially he had serious issues with MIX due to her bad treatment of men in general, specially to him, though he does consider her attractive. Their relationship gets better after a battle when he risked his life to protect her by shielding her vector from an enemy attack with his own, to the point he decides to confess his love for her, however when he gets the courage to do so, he ends up creating a misunderstanding that leads to her getting angry on him, leaving him on a depressive state that has his powers out of control, usually sinking his body into the earth. His stupor lasts until he witness MIX being abducted by the Alteans, much to his despair, and upon seeing MIX converted into a male soldier working with the Alteans, his powers go berserk, creating a compact black hole. Since his return from Altair, Andy's powers seem out of control, to the point of unwillingly sinking into the ground. The only places he can surely stand without risk of sinking are the holes filled with MIX's ability as their structures possesses no weak point.

Later he manages to control his power of creating black holes to allow Aquarion to travel freely between Vega and Altair, and even learned to reopen holes closed by MIX, which he previously could not do, in an attempt to reach her brainwashed self. After properly confessing his feelings to MIX, thus helping her to regain her senses, Andy fulfills his dream of having his first coed union with her during the final battle against Mykage.

Shrade Elan (シュレード・エラン, Shurēdo Eran)

Voiced by: Daisuke Namikawa (Japanese), Eric Vale (English)

The most popular and the top student of the academy, who is never sent out in Aquaria due to his weak stamina. His elemental power Soul Performance (精神演奏, Seishin Ensō) uses the medium of sound to control the emotions of others. He has a calm yet mildly sadistic personality. It is stated by Donar Dantes that among the students that he possesses the strongest elemental power, however this offset by the fact that piloting the Aquarion would consume his life force. He is the first person to use Vector Y as the head following Amata breaking the Guize Stones, resulting into Aquarion Spada.

After finishing the Special Training of the Grave devised by Zen Fudo, Shrade's ability becomes stronger to the point that he can use his abilities without an instrument by playing an ethereal violin created with his powers. His body's condition worsens after exerting himself while on a mission to rescue MIX on Altair, but despite that, he kept piloting Aquarion Spada fearing he would not live enough to complete the melody he envisioned involving Aquarion and the planets Vega and Altair. He ultimately manages to do so in the dimensional limbo between Altair and Vega, managing to have his comrades Amata and Zessica reaching Altair safely while he stays behind, perishing along the way, and the melody he composed written in the Book of Twin Stars with his blood. However, his vector reappears during the final battle, and when his friend Cayenne boards it, Shrade's spirit merges with his to create the Aquarion Gepada.

MIX

Voiced by: Ayumi Fujimura (Japanese), Alexis Tipton (English)

A strict and serious student that shows disgust towards the opposite sex, she claims that men are unneeded to battle the Abductors. Although Andy W. Hole is usually the most annoyed by her misandry, he still finds her very attractive. Her elemental power Spacial Augmentation (空間補填, Kūkan Hoten) is the opposite of Andy's elemental power, the ability to fill in any type of hole. She is the one responsible for filling up and closing the holes dug by Andy. Upon finishing the Special Training of the Grave devised by Zen Fudo her powers are enhanced allowing her to continuously close chains of holes easily.

MIX's father was a writer for a magazine, writing reviews and guides for sightseeing attractions who fell in love with a woman he met at the little hole-in-a-wall bathhouse hinting that her father left her family because of it, thus she became disgusted with men and doesn't want to talk about her father, also explaining for her hatred of holes in general. After Andy risked himself to protect her she starts to treat him better but still gets into some petty arguments with him. As a direct result of this, she develops feelings towards him but pushes them out of the way due to an incident where he tried to confess to her. When Izumo demands Neo-DEAVA to surrender one of its female students to Altair, MIX tries to avoid Zessica from turning herself to them and ends up captured and taken away with them instead. With her body and mind turned masculine by the Altean Curse of Eve disease, MIX is brainwashed and enlisted into the Altean military with her own personal machine under the name of "MIXY" until Andy confesses to her and manages to bring her back to her senses, as she reciprocates them. Due to this, in the final battle, she performs a coed union with him and some time after returning home, her body is also restored to its original state.

Sazanka Bianca (サザンカ・ビアンカ, Sazanka Bianka)

Voiced by: Megumi Nakajima (Japanese), Tia Ballard (English)

An energetic girl in rustic clothes. Like her fellow girl students she admires both Cayenne and Shrade, resulting in her being electrocuted by the device used in the Test. This implies that her attraction may be a desire towards seeing them attracted to one another, proving that she is a fujoshi. Sazanka's ability is the Power of Corrosion (腐食力, Fushoku Ryoku), that rusts away any metal exposed to it, reflecting her fujoshi nature, as in English it can be translated as "rotten girl".

Malloy Direzza (モロイ・ドレッツァ, Moroi Dorettsa)

Voiced by: Kensuke Sato (Japanese), Ian Sinclair (English)

A dark-skinned male with the Power of Fragility (脆弱力, Zeijaku Ryoku), able to nullify the mechanical resistance of any structure, rendering it fragile to any kind of impact be it weak or strong. Just like the other Elements, there is no hints about his nationality, although he claims he is from the south, possibly African or South American.

Yunoha Thrul (ユノハ・スルール, Yunoha Surūru)

Voiced by: Yui Ogura (Japanese), Luci Christian (English)

The youngest of the Element users with a shy personality. Her elemental power Optical Fluoroscopy (光学透化, Kōgaku Tōka) turns her invisible which make her transparent to light, which can extend to Aquarion itself for brief moments at a time, but typically involves her turning herself invisible, while her toy frog-like cat doll remains visible. As a result, when she moves, it tends to seem as the doll is being levitated, leading her classmates to believe that the doll is alive, until she piloted a Vector to form Aquarion. After her identity is revealed to Amata and the others, she starts hanging out with them and showing herself but still turns invisible when shy. It is implied she has a crush on Amata, seeing as how she once bought a picture of him.

After Jin transfers into Neo-DEAVA, she ends up getting close to him. However, she was so distraught over his death that she almost erased her very existence in the world. After the Greveyard training, not only has Yunoha managed to overcome her loss, but her powers increase, allowing her to render objects invisible without making contact with them.

Jin Muso (ジン・ムソウ, Jin Musō)

Voiced by: Jun Fukushima (Japanese), Todd Haberkorn (English)

Originally a member of the Altean forces, Jin is Izumo's second in command, preferring to employ furtive tactics against his opponents. He is calm and a good analyst, his quick thinking allows him to execute his attacks and strategies perfectly. He is also a sharpshooter. As the last Altean born before the death of all women in the planet, he is usually called as the last son of Altair by Izumo.

After being defeated a couple of times, Jin manages to infiltrate the Neo-DEAVA academy as a transfer student under the name Akbarjin Batbayar, but coincidentally, the other students nicknamed him Jin. There he becomes attached to Yunoha and obtains his elemental power, the Power To Isolate (断ち切る力, Tachikiru Chikara) that allows him to create energy barriers. Despite knowing he is not who he claims to be, both Fudo and Crea view Jin's power as an invaluable asset to the team.

Believing that Yunoha is the "True Eve" the Altairs are desperately looking for, he makes use of Kagura's sudden invasion of Neo-DEAVA's academy to take her with him to his home planet. However, upon seeing Yunoha desperation to protect her friends, he returns to help them defeat Kagura, but is killed by Mykage as a punishment for ruining his plans.

Kagura Demuri (カグラ・デムリ)

Voiced by: Kōki Uchiyama (Japanese), Taliesin Jaffe (English)

Izumo's subordinate, and the man whom Cayenne saw beside Mikono in his "wedding in mourning clothes" vision. Upon feeling Mikono's scent, he developed an obsession with her and since then is determined to claim her at all costs, usually disobeying orders to search for her. His sense of smell is so strong that he could track someone similar to that of canines. When on board his Mithra Gnis his sense of smell is so strong that he could even smell the pilots inside Aquarion.

For some reason Kagura's appearance, attitude and behavior resemble those of Apollo, the protagonist of the original Aquarion series, although such aspects of Kagura's personality seem to be heavily influenced by Mykage including having memories of Apollo and Silvia's love, after awakening those memories within him, he started dubbing Mikono as his own Silvia. Later it is revealed that Kagura is a split personality of Amata, created by Mykage, who needed the Solar Aquarion's chosen element (Apollo) to recover and take coontrol of it. During Alicia's departure to Altair, Kagura followed her leaving Amata behind, only to lose her and end up with Mykage who erases his memories and raises him.

Kagura has also been revealed as an element user with the Power of Reversal (逆さまの力, Sakasama no Chikara) allowing him to reverse the laws of physics such as turning fire into ice or reversing the blood flow within one's body stated by Zen. Just like it occurs with other Elements, Kagura's reversing power is sometimes reflected on his speech, specially regarding Mikono, as the more he craves for her, the more he insults and threatens her, much to her horror, until she learns the true meaning behind his seemingly harsh words. During the final battle against Mykage, Kagura finally recognizes that while his feelings for Mikono come from Apollo's love for Silvia, Amata's love is towards Mikono's current self, thus he helps him retrieve her from Mykage's mercy.

In Genesis of Aquarion LOVE, he is shown to have become a member of Neo-DEAVA. Upon sniffing a smell he didn't like, he goes into the dimensional gap, leading him into a fight between his Aquarion EVOL and Apollo's Solar Aquarion.

Mist (ミスト, Misuto)

Donar Dantes (ドナール・ダンテス, Donāru Dantesu)

Voiced by: Junichi Suwabe (Japanese), Justin Cook (English)

A veteran soldier and chief of Neo-DEAVA's male academy. He uses a pair of prosthetic arms to replace those he lost on a disastrous incident when he piloted Aquarion on its first sortie against the Abductors eight years before. This also resulted in the disappearance of the other two pilots (including his girlfriend). His arms are replaced with special prostetic limbs that can contain a variety of weapons, from hooks and a blowgun to a powerful energy cannon.

According to Fudo, the incident involving Donar was caused by having two Elements in love piloting Aquarion together as a consequence of Apollo and Silvia's separation 12,000 years before, but to bring forth the true power of Aquarion, the pilots must have strong feelings for each other that must never develop into love.

Suomi Konepi (スオミ・コネピ, Suomi Konepi)

Voiced by: Sanae Kobayashi (Japanese), Colleen Clinkenbeard (English)

Dressed as a nun, she runs Neo-DEAVA's female academy. It is implied that just like Donar she is a veteran Element user but her powers are never revealed. Also it is hinted that by the end of the series she has a relationship with him.

Zen Fudo (不動・ZEN, Fudō Zen)

Voiced by: Keiji Fujiwara (Japanese), Brandon Potter (English)

An enigmatic character with an eyepatch who is the supreme commander of Neo-DEAVA and offers guidance to the Elements to help them attain their full potential by using magic tricks, in a fashion similar to Gen Fudo in the original Aquarion series. Later it is revealed that he is indeed the same Gen Fudo of the original series, and during his union with Apollo and Sirius to save the planet, Toma realizes that Gen is the true reincarnation of Apollonius, and after Mykage is defeated, he confines his essence inside his body rendering him unable to cause further harm.

Fudo claims that he is an immovable being whose presence lies anywhere, protecting over all the living things, in a reference to the Hindu deity Acalanātha, also known as Fudō in Japanese mythology.

Crea Dolosera (クレア・ドロセラ, Kurea Dorosera)

Voiced by: Sakura Tange (Japanese), Carrie Savage (English)

Despite looking like a child, she is a genius with an IQ beyond 300 and chairwoman of Neo-DEAVA academy, usually displaying a mature attitude despite her uncommon craving for donuts. She is the one responsible for recruiting Shrade Elan (hence her caring for his well-being) and for giving the signal of approval for the unification of the Vectors. Prior to the beginning of the story and after the prohibition of using Aquarion she is said to be in a trip, returning after the Aquarion's debut once the seal is broken and the wall separating the girls and boys section is destroyed. Later she is revealed to be also an Element User with the power of teleportation, joining the others in the final battle against Mykage.

Altair

The home planet of the invaders dubbed "Abductors" by the people of Vega. Years ago prior to the story, the women of Altair suddenly stopped giving birth to girls, and those who were alive started dying one by one until only the men were left. Since then they started abducting women living in Vega to ensure the preservation of their race. However, all women they capture are also afflicted by the disease, eventually dying or transforming into men in mind and body.

Since then the Alteans started looking for females with strong elemental powers dubbed as Rare Iguras (レア・イグラー, Rea Igurā) hoping that one of them may withstand the disease and become their "True Eve". Altair is a heavily industrialized planet powered by Ianthe, a machine developed by Izumo's mother and revealed to be the true cause of the disease, as the energy it provides comes from the planet's life force itself.

Later it is revealed that both Altair and Vega were once the same planet, separated after the Tree of Life's collapse twelve thousand years before in Genesis of Aquarion.

Towano Mykage (トワノ・ミカゲ, Towano Mikage)

Voiced by: Yuichi Nakamura (Japanese), J. Michael Tatum (English)

The main antagonist of Aquarion Evol. A mysterious entity who was sleeping in a glass-like coffin, he seems to have some connection to the incident involving Aquarion 9 years before. He has no interest in saving the Altean race from extinction, as his true objective is to awaken the original Aquarion that buried itself under Vega's surface 12,000 years before and claim it for himself on his plan to have both Altair and Vega destroyed and recreated into one single world with him as its god.

Mykage has a striking resemblance to Toma, a Shadow Angel and the main antagonist of the original Aquarion series. Later it is revealed that Mykage is indeed a fragment of Toma's soul, albeit without a physical form, created upon his despair over figuring that Apollo was not the reincarnation of Apollonius as he always believed. After Mykage possesses Zessica's body, he moves forward with his plan to use Mikono and Kagura to hijack the Legendary Aquarion and convert it into the "Ancient AQ". After his plans are foiled by Mikono and Amata, Mykage seeks another body to possess just to end up confined inside Fudo, unable to control him, but unable to leave, ironically reunited with the person he always loved.

The elusive and mysterious commander of the Altean forces. He is usually calm but could also be extremely enraged at matters concerning Alicia. He has powers that is almost similar those used by Vega's element users.

Later it is revealed that Izumo is Amata's father, who met Alicia when his mecha crash-landed on Vega. The two fell in love, but Izumo ended up returning to Altair, forced to bring her back with him when Mykage revealed her existence. Izumo is mortally wounded by Solar Aquarion's Mugen Punch when he gets distraught over Alicia's safety. Just after realizing the true nature of the Curse of Eve, Izumo dies in his son's arms, rejoining Alicia in spirit.
